Hi ch4rl1e,
Thanks for your interest in my mod. Unfortunately I haven't played Factorio for about 10 months now and I'm quite busy with Baldur's Gate 3 and Starfield at the moment.
In that time pretty much everything I learned about making this mod has faded from memory. I have a vague impression that there was a good reason for setting the allow in space flag to false, but I can't remember why.
If you want to take a crack at this yourself, you should be able to unpack and re-pack the mod's zip file and alter three occurrences of se_allow_in_space to True in UndergroundTanks\prototypes\entities.lua preferably with Notepad++, but plain old Notepad will probably do.
When you stick the updated file back into the zip archive, that should be it, but if the mod won't load after, then:
Compress the whole UndergroundTanks folder into a new zip file using 7-Zip, change the compression method to zip from lzma and put in the parameters field "tc=off" which from what I recall is necessary for Factorio to open zip files nicely. Rename the new zip to match and then overwrite the original.
I hope this helps.
